Hi there.
I've an even BETTER idea . !
I am using a SAMSUNG S4 phone with the Shared Screen Wifi Gizmo (all share cast dongle). Now using a blue tooth keyboard and the Dongle I can use a nice 48 inch TV screen as a monitor -- typing is easy and I have all the Touch apps enabled from the phone -- BRILLIANT piece of kit -- can also play movies etc either from internal phone's removable micro 64GB sd card or even from a remote computer.
Great when I'm in a hotel room, at a friends house or simply can't be bothered to connect a remote computer to the TV - much easier this way -- works absolutely fine too. Full 1080p HD output and no wires !!! you only need to connect the gizmo to an HDMI slot on the TV and then simply enable "Shared Screen" on the phone. Works - completely automatically. Now start your application on the phone -- enjoy on the big screen - with audio too. (Uses it's own Wi-Fi system so you don't even need to be using the Hotel Wi-Fi etc - but for Remote file / multimedia access you'll need Wi-Fi of course).

Don't need a tablet now.
